The month of November will
be devoted to acquainting the
Detroit Jewish community with
the manifold activities of the
American Federation for Polish
Jews and the part that the De-
troit district is assuming in car-
rying through this pro gram . A
request has been made of or-
ganizatoins to devote a whole or
part of a meeting during No-
vember for a presentation of
these facts. At the last meeting
of the Federation on Nov. 5 a
committee of 10 speakers in-
cluding rabbis and laymen was
named to visit the organizations
and participate in their meetings.
They will present facts and in-
formation concerning Polish Jews
both under German occupation
and those that are refugees in
Russia, India, China, Portugal,
etc.
They will explain the part that
Detroit Jews will play in bring-
ing over refugee children from
France and in locating suitable
homes for them in this city. Each
group will be urged to affiliate
itself both as a group and its
members as individuals and to
accept a generous quota of the
work.
The program of meetings is
now being arranged, and those
groups who will expect a speaker
are urged to communicate with
the office immediately.
At a joint meeting of the Fed-
eration, the Ezra and representa-
tives of various organizations
which took place on Nov. 5, a
decision was made to send 400
packages addressed to Polish
prisoners in German camps. The
price of each package is $4.50
and is shipped to its destination
under the supervision of the In-
ternational Red Cross with a spe-
cial license from the American
Board of Economic Warfare. Do-
nations for this project are being
accepted at the office of the
Federation, 9124 Linwood Ave.,
Tyler 7-9650. where additional
details are available to those in-
terested.

may yet come a day when all men
of all faiths will march together
in a Holy Name parade for the
honor and glory of God who is
the Father of the brotherhood.
And what will it matter from
which angle each looks at God.
They will ask only have we not
all one Father and none will ask
is it safe to go marching for my
faith in the streets?
Mr. Segal's feet were going

shoulder to shoulder. He could
feel Jewishly fulfilled in the Cath-
olic parade for God.
